In This Issue: Vocations Retreat 3 Rector’S Ruminations 4 Christian Awareness 5 17 February 2019 Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time Weekly Bulletin for the Cathedral of St. Joseph, Wheeling, West Virginia Vol. 8, No. 12 In this Issue: Vocations Retreat 3 Rector’s Ruminations 4 Christian Awareness 5 Saint Joseph Cathedral Parish is called to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ as a community. We are committed: to our urban neighborhoods, to being the Cathedral of the Diocese, and to fellowship, formation, sacrament, and prayer. Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time Jeremiah 17:5-8; Psalm 11-2, 3, 4, 6 1 Corinthians 15:12, 16-20; Luke 6:17, 20-26 Today’s readings speak of an essential quality for the Christian disciple — hope. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, ThisAt The Cathedral Week “Hope is the theological virtue by which we desire the kingdom February 17 - 24, 2019 of heaven and eternal life as our happiness, placing our trust in Christ’s promises and relying not on our own strength but on the help of the grace of the Holy Spirit (CCC 1817).” In many ways, this is the very definition of a life of a Christian disciple vvvvv — focusing on eternity as we live our daily lives and relying on God to provide for our needs and satisfy our deepest longings for meaning and happiness. SUN SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME The First Reading from the Prophet Jeremiah paints a vivid 17 picture of the difference between the person who puts his trust 6:00 pm (Sat) Mass for the Parishioners in fellow humans versus the person who relies on — or, in other 8:00 am Mass for Julia Bartolovich words, hopes in — the Lord. “Cursed is the one who trusts in 10:30 am Mass for Michael Sargent human beings, who seeks his strength in flesh... He is like a barren bush in the desert that enjoys no change of season but stands in a lava waste.” Not a pretty picture! MON Weekday in Ordinary Time 18 On the other hand, the prophet teaches, “Blessed is the one 12:05 pm Mass for Rose Breiding who trusts in the Lord, whose hope is in the Lord. He is like a tree planted beside the waters that stretches out its roots to the stream: it fears not the heat when it comes; its leaves stay green.” TUE Weekday in Ordinary Time Notice that the one who trusts in the Lord does not escape 19 the heat any more than the one who has put his trust in human 12:05 pm Mass for Dr. Adiel Anghie strength — his own or another’s. The difference between the two is that the one who fails to trust in the Lord becomes barren in the heat, while the one who trusts in God is given the means to WED Weekday in Ordinary Time 20 persevere and even thrive in the midst of the challenging times. 12:05 pm Mass for Ron Radcliffe “It’s leaves stay green; in the year of drought it shows no distress but still bears fruit.” In the Second Reading, Saint Paul reminds the Corinthians that THU Saint Peter Damian, bishop, it is foolish to think of hope in the Lord with only an “earthly” 21 doctor of the Church vision since God desires nothing less than our eternal happiness. “If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are the most 12:05 pm Mass for Terry Donahie pitiable people of all.” To aim only for comforts or pleasure or honors in this life is actually an impoverished way of living. FRI In the Gospel from Saint Luke, Jesus describes the true richness THE CHAIR OF SAINT PETER THE APOSTLE 22 of life that is possible for those of us who are willing to live 11:15 am Confessions as his disciples. We are all familiar with this passage in which 12:05 pm Mass for the Parishioners Jesus reveals the Beatitudes: blessed are the poor; they have the kingdom of God. Blessed are those now hungry because they will be satisfied. Blessed are those who weep because they will laugh. SAT Saint Polycarp, bishop, martyr Blessed are those who are hated, excluded and insulted because 23 they are disciples of Jesus; they will be greatly rewarded in heaven. 9:00 am Mass for Heather Ball Jesus is describing here the character of one who is living a life 9:30 am Rosary of hope — the life of a disciple whose trust is firmly rooted in 5:00 pm Confessions God and who is focused on others and eternity. It is not always 6:00 pm Mass for Stephen Edmister an easy life, but it is a deeply meaningful life and one that leads to eternal reward. As the psalm response for this weekend states: ¦ SUN “Blessed are they who hope in the Lord.” SEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME 24 8:00 am Mass for the Parishioners 10:30 am Mass for Pasquale & Amelia Perri Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, vvvvv whose hope is the Lord. — Jeremiah 17:7 2 The Cathedral Courier February 17, 2019 February: Month of the Passion of Our Lord In your charity, please keep in your prayers: The month of February is traditionally dedicated to the Passion Arthur Danehart, Austin Cook, Barb Mazzocca, of Our Lord.

Schlosser, Mary Walicki, Michael DeBlasis, and surrounded by a glory of sunbursts, clouds, angels, and enormous figures of the Doctors of the Church. Why is this Milissa Rose, Milly Burke, Mona Wurtzbacher, Nadine chair so important? Because in our Catholic tradition, chairs Greenwood, Norma Bosold, Norma Paytash, Patricia are one of our primary symbols of teaching authority. Every Kaliscz, Pete Mack, R. J.

  • St. Polycarp Feast: February 23
    St. Polycarp Feast: February 23 Facts Feast Day: February 23 Imagine being able to sit at the feet of the apostles and hear their stories of life with Jesus from their own lips. Imagine walking with those who had walked with Jesus, seen him, and touched him. That was what Polycarp was able to do as a disciple of Saint John the Evangelist. But being part of the second generation of Church leaders had challenges that the first generation could not teach about. What did you do when those eyewitnesses were gone? How do you carry on the correct teachings of Jesus? How do you answer new questions that never came up before? With the apostles gone, heresies sprang up pretending to be true teaching, persecution was strong, and controversies arose over how to celebrate liturgy that Jesus never laid down rules for. Polycarp, as a holy man and bishop of Smyrna, found there was only one answer -- to be true to the life of Jesus and imitate that life. Saint Ignatius of Antioch told Polycarp "your mind is grounded in God as on an immovable rock." When faced with heresy, he showed the "candid face" that Ignatius admired and that imitated Jesus' response to the Pharisees. Marcion, the leader of the Marcionites who followed a dualistic heresy, confronted Polycarp and demanded respect by saying, "Recognize us, Polycarp." Polycarp responded, "I recognize you, yes, I recognize the son of Satan." On the other hand when faced with Christian disagreements he was all forgiveness and respect. One of the controversies of the time came over the celebration of Easter.

  • Mary the Blessed Virgin
    January 1 – Mary the Blessed Virgin Mary is venerated with a special cult, called by St. Thomas Aquinas, hyperdulia, as the holiest of all creatures. The main events of her life are celebrated as liturgical feasts of the universal Church. Traditionally, she was declared the daughter of Sts. Joachim and Anne. Born in Jerusalem, Mary was presented in the Temple and took a vow of virginity. Living in Nazareth, Mary was visited by the archangel Gabriel, who announced to her that she would become the Mother of Jesus, by the Holy Spirit. She became betrothed to St. Joseph and went to visit her cousin, Elizabeth, who was bearing St. John the Baptist. Acknowledged by Elizabeth as the Mother of God, Mary intoned the Magnificat. When Emperor Augustus declared a census throughout the vast Roman Empire, Mary and St. Joseph went to Bethlehem where he was born, as he belonged to the House of David. There Mary gave birth to Jesus and was visited by the Three Kings. Mary and Joseph presented Jesus in the Temple, where St. Simeon rejoiced and Mary received word of sorrows to come later. Warned to flee, St. Joseph and Mary went to Egypt to escape the wrath of King Herod. They remained in Egypt until King Herod died and then returned to Nazareth. Nothing is known of Mary's life during the next years except for a visit to the Temple of Jerusalem, at which time Mary and Joseph sought the young Jesus, who was in the Temple with the learned elders. The first recorded miracle of Jesus was performed at a wedding in Cana, and Mary was instrumental in calling Christ's attention to the need.

  • Saint Catherine of Siena
    SAINT CATHERINE OF SIENA Benedict XVI’s reflection on the great saint and Doctor of the Church in 2010. Our catechesis today deals with Saint Catherine of Siena, a Dominican tertiary, a woman of great holiness and a Doctor of the Church. Catherine’s spiritual teachings are centered on our union with Christ, the bridge between earth and heaven. Her own virginal entrustment to Christ the Bridegroom was reflected in her celebrated visions. Catherine’s life also shows us the importance of the spiritual maternity exercised by so many women in every age. From this great saint let us learn to grow in holiness, love for the Lord and fidelity to his body, the Church. Dear Brothers and Sisters, Today I would like to speak to you about a woman who has had an eminent role in the history of the Church. She is St. Catherine of Siena. The century in which she lived — the 14th — was a troubled time for the life of the Church and for the whole social fabric in Italy and Europe. However, even in the moments of greatest difficulty, the Lord does not cease to bless his People, raising men and women saints who stir minds and hearts, bringing about conversion and renewal. Catherine is one of these and still today she speaks to us and pushes us to walk courageously toward sanctity to be disciples of the Lord in an ever fuller sense. Born in Siena in 1347 to a very numerous family, she died in her native city in 1380. At 16, moved by a vision of St.

Abstract This project looks at the career of St. Catherine of Siena and argues that without the relationships she had with her closest followers, who provided social connections and knowledge of the operation of political power, she would not have been able to pursue as active or wide-ranging a career. The examination of Catherine’s relationships, the careers of her followers, and the ways she made use of this network of support, relies mainly on Catherine’s extant letters. Most prior research on St. Catherine focuses on her spirituality and work with the papacy, which leaves out the influence of her local, political environment and the activities of her associates. This work examines Catherine’s place on Siena’s political landscape and within the system of Italian politics more generally.

  • Church “Fathers”: Polycarp
    Church History and Evidences Notes: Church “Fathers”: Polycarp I.Church “fathers” and their writings: Polycarp A. Polycarp of Smyrna 1. Polycarp of Smyrna (c. 69 – c. 155) was a Christian bishop of Smyrna (now İzmir in Turkey). 2. According to Eusebius (260-340AD) supposedly quoting Irenaeus (130- 202AD), Polycrates of Ephesus (130-196AD) cited the example of Polycarp in defense of local practices during the Quartodeciman Controversy. Polycarp supposedly tried and failed to persuade Pope Anicetus to have the West celebrate Passover on the 14th of Nisan, as in the Eastern calendar. 3. Around A.D. 155, the Smyrnans of his town demanded Polycarp's execution as a Christian, and he died a martyr. The story of his martyrdom describes how the fire built around him would not burn him, and that when he was stabbed to death, so much blood issued from his body that it quenched the flames around him. Polycarp is recognized as a saint in both the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches. 4. Both Irenaeus, who as a young man heard Polycarp speak, and Tertullian recorded that Polycarp had been a disciple of John the Apostle. 5. There are two chief sources of information concerning the life of Polycarp: the letter of the Smyrnaeans recounting the martyrdom of Polycarp and the passages in Irenaeus' Adversus Haereses. Other sources are the epistles of Ignatius, which include one to Polycarp and another to the Smyrnaeans, and Polycarp's own letter to the Philippians. In 1999, some third to 6th-century Coptic fragments about Polycarp were also published.

Catherine is one of the few well documented women, of her historical period, in history. However, there is a large gap in the historiography of Catherine, and that is looking at the effect of her letters on her audience and possible implications of her letters on the political and spiritual landscape of her time and beyond. An important piece of looking at Catherine’s spiritual and political career is using a feminist or subaltern methodology to understand how Catherine’s gender influenced the outcome of her career.
